Chapter 624 Self-Sabotage   

Author: Five Generals
The rage left Darcy as Kaze lost himself while embracing her.

Now, that was more like it.

She was still attractive to him.

Kaze said, “But I feel like something is missing. We can do it tomorrow. I have a surprise for you tomorrow.”

“What is it?” Darcy asked curiously.

Her eyes were hazy by then.

“You’ll know tomorrow. Get some sleep now.”

Kaze patted her shoulder and turned off the bedroom light.

“Okay.”

Darcy faintly nodded and snuggled up in his arms before closing her eyes.

The drug was taking effect on her. She soon fell into a deep sleep.

It would not be uneventful for long.

“Thump, thump, thump…”

There was a knock on the door.

Despite multiple attempts at knocking, no one came to the door.

The beep of a digital sensor ensued. Someone had opened the door with a key card.

The bedroom door was opened.

The three thugs waltzed their way into the place.

Click!

One hooligan turned on the lights and found Darcy sleeping in Kaze’s arms.

    Narian would never marry Deborah. He was just looking for some fun. It would be silly of him to refuse a woman who had thrown herself at him. Besides, Deborah was average-looking, but she was Darcy’s cousin. At least, Deborah could scratch his itch for a little while. “Mr. Narian, this is where Ms. Quint is staying—” The intense noise from the chalet interrupted the attendant. The young, female attendant blushed embarrassedly. That was pretty rude and inconsiderate. As the chalet was built with a wood structure, it lacked the soundproofing capabilities of hotel rooms.The attendant glanced at Narian. His face was sour. Narian wondered if Deborah called him over to hear the awful noise. “Mr. Lee, should I call Ms. Quint out?” the female attendant asked with unrest. Narian grimaced and walked away without a peep. The animalistic noise continued in the chalet into the night. That night, the guests in the nearby chalets could not sleep a wink. Deborah woke up i

    The three thugs’ target was supposed to be Darcy. However, she was unharmed. The three thugs somehow showed up in Deborah’s room instead. Deborah suspected it had something to do with Kaze. “Duh. There was quite a lot of banging happening at your chalet last night.” Confused, Darcy had no idea what Kaze was talking about. She was too deep in her sleep to notice anything. “So it was you, bastard! You ruined me! I want to kill you!” Deborah shrieked and jumped on Kaze. Kaze held Darcy and dodged the assault while uttering with glee, “Don’t frame the innocent. I’m not the only one aware of last night. Everybody in Mountain Dew Estate knows about it.” Deborah’s eyes widened. She then realized the passing senior executives of various companies were giving her funny looks. “You could’ve been a little civil, Deborah. The noise from your chalet went on all night long, and we couldn’t sleep at all.” “Yeah. You can have your fun, but just pay attention to the sound pollution

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 627 Kaze’s a Thief   

    “A thief?” Wendell was very loud. The senior executives having breakfast in the restaurant heard his accusation. Kaze was getting looks of contempt. Wham! Darcy slammed her cutlery down on the table and jolted to her feet. As her eyes narrowed in rage, she said, “Please do not make false claims, Mr. Delaney. My husband will never do something like that.” Nancy happened to be there. Seeing that her old friend was in trouble, she came over to ease the tension. “It could just be a misunderstanding, Mr. Delaney. Why don’t we go somewhere more private to sort things out?” Nancy was concerned that Darcy might not be able to attend the auction if things got out of hand. Wendell glared at the woman. “Sort things out? Fine. We’ll talk in the control room.”He smirked. The security personnel gave Kaze hostile looks. Darcy furrowed her brows. She was not a dummy. She knew that Wendell was stirring trouble. Darcy and Kaze were potentially putting themselves in dange

    Deborah’s words stirred a commotion in the restaurant. A few company representatives were having breakfast there. They approached with spite. “That’s crossing the line. Quartet Group’s despicable approach is an insult to the city’s commerce.” “I’m sure the one billion dollars granted to Quartet Group wasn’t acquired legitimately either.” These representatives were up in arms. “I suggest boycotting Quartet Group. The organizer should bar the company from entering the auction,” Cameron from North River Corporation proposed. He carried a manipulative smirk. “I concur! Boycott Quartet Group!” “That’s right!” It took some level of shrewdness to be able to represent their companies at an auction. They expressed their support in kicking Quartet Group out. The company had one billion dollars in funding, so it was a major competition. All would end well for the other companies if Quartet Group was out of the running. Darcy felt chills down her spine. She could tell wha

    Wendell’s face twitched. Kaze turned out to be his boss. How was that possible? There was no way. Yesterday, Kaze told him that he had bought Mountain Dew Estate. However, Wendell did not believe him one bit. He ridiculed Kaze. He even took Deborah’s advice to drug Darcy. This morning, he planted evidence on Kaze to kick him out of the place. Wendell felt like he shot himself in the foot. “No way! A loser like Kaze can’t possibly have the money to acquire Mountain Dew Estate,” Deborah screamed. She would rather die than believe what was happening before her eyes. “A loser? Your family found riches out of nowhere. Who are you to call him a loser?” Ash snapped an angry look at Deborah. Deborah just wanted to sink into the ground and disappear off the face of the earth. Cameron and the others blushed in shame too. “Kaze… You?” Darcy looked at Kaze in disbelief. She could not believe Kaze bought Mountain Dew Estate. “I told you I bought the resort for you, babe.

    “I’m so sorry, Mr. Lee. “I was fooled by Deborah’s and Wendell’s video and thought you stole my documents.” Cameron and the others approached Kaze. “Yeah. It was all a misunderstanding. We apologize, Mr. Lee.” The other company representatives expressed embarrassedly. “It’s okay. I didn’t take any of that to heart.” Kaze smiled and added indifferently, “Please pack your things and leave Mountain Dew Estate right away. We won’t be accepting business from you anymore.” “What are you doing, Mr. Lee?” At first, the group thought that all was forgiven with Kaze. To their dismay, he started kicking them out of the resort. The auction was about to begin. Yet, Kaze showed them the door. In other words, he was stopping them from attending the auction. “Don’t you understand the words coming out of my mouth?” Kaze grimaced. “I told you to get out!” “So what if you bought Mountain Dew Estate, Kaze? It was only two billion dollars. We all run billion-dollar corporations to

    “River North Corporation and other companies are out as well. I heard they messed with the wrong person from Mountain Dew Estate. I believe it is the new owner. They are all thrown out already.” “Who is the new owner of the estate? Is he that powerful?” “Who cares, it’s none of our business. The auction is more important now.” The tumultuous crowd was silenced all of a sudden as several people walked inside. Narian was in the lead, followed by his assistant and others. “Mr. Narian Lee, you’re finally here! The Sunrise Lees had a harvest this time!” A group of people went up to Narian, flattering him with sugar-coated words. “Nonsense. We are the Lee family from the capital and we are rich! Lilyrose is just a small city! Who is capable of fighting us here? Who has the nerve to compete against us?” Narian spewed nothing but arrogance the moment his lips moved. He looked down on the people who surrounded them, showing no respect for them. Despite being looked down on,

    Narian then walked away with arrogant cackles. Darcy became worried. She had a feeling that Narian would target her during the auction later. “Don’t worry, Darcy. He’s just a clown. He won’t be able to make fun of anyone soon,” Kaze said. Darcy simply hummed a reply. “My entrepreneur friends, let us begin the auction today!” The auctioneer’s voice came from the podium. The floor was silenced immediately. “The first property on our auction list today is Genting Limited, starting with twenty million with each increase no less than one hundred thousand…” The first on the list was the company that Quarter Group aimed for. Genting Limited was not a big company but its business would complement Quartet Group’s shortcomings. Darcy could merge the companies if she could get it. She did some research with her team about Genting Limited and believed they had a good chance to win the bidding. Many bidders were from big companies and they had their eyes on bigger or same sc

    Dwight gave some suggestions. “But I’m worried about being a nuisance to your family.” Kaze remained hesitant, torn between decisions. “No, you won’t. I usually live alone. They stay somewhere else. They barely visit. I’ll just let them know not to visit for now,” Dwight replied. Dwight figured out what was in it for him. He could not let Kaze leave. “I don’t want to put your family in an awkward position.”Kaze was still considering the matter. “Relax. They don’t live with me anyway. The room I have for you is tidy. No one has stayed there before.“I’ll hire some help to freshen up the place. I can guarantee you an experience no less than at the hotel.” Dwight spoke with great confidence. “We should finish our food and doggie-bag the rest. I’ll take you to my place.” Dwight was ready to get things going. Kaze took the offer and nodded. “I’ll be in your care then.” Kaze was glad that his plan went through. Dwight had no idea that he got played. Nevertheless,

    “I’m new to the place, so I don’t know much. Can you show me around when you’re available?” “No problem, but I usually have some stuff to take care of. I can’t be there 24/7. “Why don’t you propose to the branch that you want me to be your guide and attendant?” Dwight suggested. There was no telling whether Kaze would accept his proposal, but it was an opportunity to prove himself. He was never involved in the core operation. Often enough, he was the branch members’ punching bag. Though Dwight was aware that he was not good enough for the big stuff, he still wanted to succeed. Kaze was the trusted aide of the Butterworth Branch chief. He was in Westeros for a reason. By joining Kaze, Dwight would come across the major players. Kaze saw through Dwight’s plans. “Sure. I’ll do that.” Kaze did not mind the request. “Great. I’ll let them know on your behalf. I’ll be responsible for your needs while in the city.” Dwight was overjoyed at the opportunity. “So you live

    “You must be rich. I often see rich people picking tabs for everybody. Talk about extravagance.” The tension in the air was lifted when Kaze offered to pay for everything. “I’m not. Consider it an apology,” Kaze explained, not wanting to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. He did not see the point of continuing the conversation. Dwight’s angry screams came from outside. “What the hell is this? I only ordered a bunch of stuff. Why am I being charged an exorbitant amount?“What do you mean my friend is paying for everybody? That’s throwing money away,” Dwight said while storming his way over. “I know you have money, but you shouldn’t do this, Mr. Lee.” Dwight did not approve of this type of generosity. “You rubbed them the wrong way. It was only right to apologize. Besides, it’s not a lot of money.” Kaze looked at the bill and handed a bank card to Dwight. “It’s my treat.” The consumption was barely a dent in Kaze’s savings. The meal did not cost more than his us

    Kaze observed as the jeep took off further off course, past the towering buildings to a run-down neighborhood. “This is where I usually reside. My home is not too far away, but I think you might have trouble adapting to this place.” Dwight did not forget to book Kaze a hotel. Kaze could not possibly stay with him. The hotel was around the area anyway. “Didn’t you say that you haven’t tried the local cuisine? I’ll take you out for a bite. “The barbecue ribs here are to die for. We’ve got the dry-rubbed and saucy kind.” Dwight parked the car and hopped out right away. Opposite the parking lot was not the cleanest food joint. Looking in from the outside, Kaze realized that the place was packed. Kaze understood that the restaurant must be known for some kind of dish. The customers were from all walks of life, so the food must be great. “There’s not much to see here, but the food is tasty. If you don’t mind, we can order something inside.” Kaze was not particularly con

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3760 Clueless

    Dwight was surprised and curious as to who Kaze really was. From what he gathered, Kaze was a confidante of the Butterworth Branch chief. The purpose of Kaze’s visit was to learn and share. Dwight worked on the fringes, so his access to information was limited. Nevertheless, he got the feeling that Kaze was just an ordinary guy just like him. The only difference was that Kaze was lucky to rub shoulders with important people. Dwight did not get chances like that. “Who are the most influential people in the Viper’s Den Westeros Branch?” Kaze asked in the car. Dwight was taken aback by the question. Still, he had an answer to that. “So you don’t know much about the situation?” Dwight suddenly felt important. “Well, I’m new to the city. I will be running into them soon, so I need to make sure I get my facts right,” Kaze said humbly. This was Dwight’s shot, and he needed to present his best. “Relax, Kaze. I’ll tell you everything I know.” Dwight would reveal some info

    Kaze glanced at the flowers. There was a card for well-wishes too.Curious, Kaze reached out to read the card. It was written, “To my eternal lover and sweetheart.” Dwight grabbed Kaze’s bag. Since the sign in his hand was getting in the way, Dwight tossed the placard in the trash can. As Dwight turned his head back, he saw Kaze reading the card that came with the flowers. He tried to stop Kaze, but it was too late. Dwight had not attended to a guest of high importance before. The task was assigned to him at the last minute. In the past, Dwight was usually on the sidelines, never getting close to major matters. He would always get the small, insignificant jobs. Dwight often bought drinks for his superiors to build connections. However, he had always been kept out of the loop. Now that an opportunity had fallen onto his lap, Dwight was not about to let it slip. He wanted to show what he could do. When Dwight arrived at the airport for the pick-up, most people car

    The incident did not sit well with Kaze, so he left them out to dry. After much searching, Kaze came across a café. Kaze bought a cup of coffee. Cupping the drink between his hands, Kaze sipped slowly. Many passengers swarmed the arrival hall in the airport, dragging along their luggage or pulling out their phones to get a pick-up. They all had a destination, a place they had to be in a rush. Intrigued, Kaze followed the crowd out. Kaze turned on his phone, and a text message from his airport pick-up came in. He glanced at the message, curious about who the person was. Nevertheless, Kaze trusted that the Westeros Branch members would not set him up out in the open. At most, they would pull little stunts to mess with him. Kaze was not the type to sweat the small stuff. However, he would not tolerate any extreme behavior. He had been keeping a low profile back in Butterworth, keeping the limelight off him. The purpose was to handle Jet without unnecessary complicati

    “Alright. I will work hard to be the manager of the Northborn Group. You need to show me the ropes and teach me about management.” Leah looked at Katie with a smile. She believed Katie had not lost her mind. Katie simply had her memory mixed up. “You need to keep your people in line and reward those who deserve it. It all boils down to profits. “You need to work toward managing your people and working with rivals. You’ve got to keep the balance, and nobody loses out. “You need to build your own system when it comes to working together. Don’t be led around by the nose.” Hearing that Leah would start work soon, Katie imparted her knowledge. “Don’t worry too much about things. Joey is nice. You can go to her for help,” Katie said earnestly. Katie seemed to be herself at the moment. Leah wondered if Katie faked her insanity to escape the punishment. “What have become of you? Did they do something to you? “Did you really betray Kaze?” Leah whispered while leaning close

    Leah kept working on her knowledge until late into the night. Just as she was about to hit the sack, she got a message from Snow. Learning was a hard enough process. The text message came out of the blue. Leah did not expect Snow to contact her at night. The message was strange as well. Leah could not understand why Snow would give her the address of a nursing home. Leah was determined to turn things around. She strived to become stronger instead of being a burden. She was grateful for Kaze’s help. At least, she had a job now. However, her gratitude was not extended to Snow. She believed Snow had gone too far. Snow left her feeling powerless. Leah did not think much about the message. She assumed that the text was not meant for her. Since Leah did not respond to the text, Snow put the matter aside and went to bed. Leah called Snow the next day. “Why did you send me an address?” Leah went straight to the question. She had been equipping herself with knowledge before
